What is Computer Engineering Computer Engineering is a branch of Electrical Engineering concerned with designing and developing computers and computer-based system. Computer engineering is a growing field of study. It focuses on the design, execution, verification, and analysis of both hardware and software-based computing systems. Because Computer Science and Electrical Engineering programs are partly overlapped in this program a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering is offered to having a curriculum that is designed to include all aspects of the computing industry, as well as specialized graduate studies, such as computer architecture, microprocessors, system-on-chip, embedded devices, signal processing techniques, computer networks, and related hardware and software design. Computer Engineers build and design different types of computers such as PCs, minicomputers, Mainframes, and Super Computers. They also design hardware of the computer such as Processors, memories, monitors, motherboards etc… What do computer engineers do? Computer Engineers Design and build computers and computer systems Research and find ways to improve the performance of processors, memory devices and other computing circuits Build computer systems installed in automatic devices such as cars, communication networks, airplanes, and many other products. Also, work on the software of computer-based systems. Scope of Computer Engineering in Pakistan As the computer manufacturing industry is still in its emerging phase in Pakistan, scope of computer engineers in Pakistan is not very good for their specific field. However, computer engineers find good opportunities in software industry, telecom industry and other manufacturing industries for the development of automated systems. Due to the non-existence of the computer hardware manufacturing industry, many computer engineers move to the software industry. How to become Computer Engineer There are two routes to become a certified computer engineer Complete a BS Engg degree in Computer Engineering/ Systems Engineering/ Hardware Engineering Complete a BS Electrical Engineering degree with a specialization in Computer engineering, electronics, or system engineering If you are determined to follow this path as a career option, it could be beneficial for you to start with it from the very beginning stage of education by taking computer sciences as a subject in matric and intermediate. After that, you can go for a bachelors and masters degree Computer Engineering Related Degree Programs Following Degree programs can lead to a career in Computer Engineering Computer Engineering Computer System Robotic & Intelligent Machine Engineering Electrical Electronics Job opportunities A computer engineer can get a job in various fields such as: Web development Robotics Nanotechnology Software houses Websites Government IT departments Research institutes Hardware industry Networking companies Telecom industry Biomedical science University and colleges Qualities required Good command on mathematics and physics Problems solving ability Good concentration and communication skills Analytical and leadership skills Strong decision power Love for the latest technology Interest to learn and develop new things Views: 57149 Related Careers Aeronautical Engineering Aerospace Engineering Agricultural Engineering Avionics Engineering Biomedical Engineering Biomedical Engineering - بائیو میڈیکل انجینئرنگ Chemical Engineering Chemical Engineering 1 Civil Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Hardware Engineering Electrical Engineering Electronics Engineering Electronics Engineering Environmental Engineering Industrial Engineering Manufacturing Engineering Marine Engineering Material Engineering Mechanical Engineering Mechanical Engineering 1 Metallurgical Engineering Mining Engineering Nuclear Engineering Software Engineering Telecom Engineering Urban Planning Water Engineering view All Careers
